heywoodu 15,135 Posted February 17, 2022 #371 Share Posted February 17, 2022 When even the skier who gets awarded the medal strongly disagrees with the decision, you might want to check your judging.... This is sad for everyone. For Smith in the first place, but also for Maier, you can see from her face she is not enjoying this at all and is just feeling bad. Everybody loses here... (except for Näslund obviously, no doubt about her ) . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So just one more gold (or two more silvers) and these will be unquestionably the most successful Winter Olympics ever for Sweden. Can't see how we will not fix that, even with our underperforming cross country team 3 semi finals in curling and ice hockey should result in at least one medal Adriano 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OlympicsFan 858 Posted February 17, 2022 #375 Share Posted February 17, 2022 Interesting that the video controller is from Germany. Not sure if he had anything to do with the decision though. I guess it was time we started fixing competitions as well after what Slovenia did in ski jumping ... Attachment is the great fabricator of illusions; reality can be obtained only by someone who is detached. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(except for Näslund obviously, no doubt about her ) Well maybe Näslund lost anyway cause Smith deserved the dsq more in the final in 2018 against Sandra than this time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NearPup 3,045 Posted February 18, 2022 #380 Share Posted February 18, 2022 NBC keeps trying to make the Gu - Sildaru Olympic rivalry happen, and like gold - gold - silver vs. did not qualify - 4th - bronze just doesn't make it look like much of a contest.
